Classic Garage Door Styles
Whether you want your garage door to complement your property or make it stand out, these classic garage door styles offer plenty of options.
Roller doors
When it comes to classic garage door styles, a roller door offers durability and reliability.
Steel-Line's range of roller doors is made with genuine BlueScope Colourbond and Zincalume steel so that they will stand the test of time. While they are highly durable, they are also lightweight and compact, so you can fully utilise your garage, and the door won't be in the way. They are also easily automated to provide the ultimate convenience.
Because Steel-Line's classic roller doors are fully customisable and available in a wide range of Colorbond colours, you can easily have them blend in with your home's colour scheme or make them a stand-out feature of its façade for maximum street appeal.
Tilt doors
The tilt door is another classic garage door that will never go out of style. It is ideal for garages with limited head height at the opening. Despite being a classic choice, tilt doors have various modern features, including remote control operation and smart device integration, for when functionality matters.
Fast opening, easy to operate and install, Steel-Line's tilt garage doors are built in a single panel reinforced with an internal steel frame. They also provide the largest range of exterior design and finish options. Our tilt doors are available in a wide range of Dulux and Colourbond colours, or you can choose materials to suit the aesthetic of your home, such as copper, aluminium composite cladding, Western Red Cedar, or plywood. You can even incorporate access doors and windows — the choice is yours!
Timber doors
When you love the look and feel of wood, Steel-Line'stimber garage doors are a classic choice for both modern and established homes. Using lightweight Western Red Cedar, timber garage doors are available in tilt and sectional garage door styles to suit the needs of your home.
These popular products begin with an aluminium frame, so they are constructed with durability in mind. Melbourne homeowners will also be pleased to know that each timber slat is hand-selected and individually fixed to the frame, resulting in a strong and stylish garage door providing plenty of street appeal.
Modern Garage Door Styles
Contemporary garage doors come in a range of bold styles ready to aesthetically enhance the front of your home.
